Often spelled pallasi, the correct spelling following Article 33.4 of the International Code on Zoological Nomenclature is pallasii. According to mtDNA and nDNA, O. pallasii belongs to subgenus Pika. The specimen that became the holotype of pallasii came to the Natural Museum in London without proper locality information. Heptner in 1941 unreasonably stated that this specimen originated in Kazakhstan, which started further confusion of names. For a long time, the name was assigned to the Kazakh race, until the skull of the holotype was analyzed. This nomenclatorial problem became obvious because two closely related taxa, O. pallasii and

were considered separate species, and the former retained the name pallasii. According to morphological study, O. pallasii includes hamica, pricei, and sunidica. Three subspecies were usually considered within O. pallasii, but that was based on tradition rather than specific analysis. Two taxa, hamica and sunidica, with restricted distribution at the Mongolian—Chinese border were listed as separate subspecies. Nevertheless, neither morphological data nor limited data on mtDNA (sunidica only) point to segregation of subspecies. Monotypic.

Pallas’s Pika feeds on green plants. It usually eats herbs around its burrow. Beginning in July, Pallas’s Pika hoards hay, usually storing it in special chambers in its burrow. Stored hay weighs 1:8-14 kg. During cold periods, Pallas’s Pika eats hay and grazes on dry vegetation; however, starting in January, it digs for and eats underground parts of plants, such as rhizomes and bulbs, and also eats lichens.

|
||
Breeding of Pallas’s Pika starts in March-April and lasts 4-5 months. Adult females breed 2-3 times/year. Young females start breeding at 1-1-5 months old; young males do not participate in breeding. Each female has 3-10 embryos. Gestation is ¢.30 days, neonates are bare and born with closed eyes, and lactation lasts 15-20 days.

|
||
Pallas’s Pika is diurnal and less active during daytime heat. Activity peaks in morning and evening when individuals feed and sunbathe for long periods of time. During cold periods, Pallas’s Pikas leave burrows only on sunny days. Winter activity peaks before midday and in early evening; c.30 minutes before sunset, they return to burrows. If firm snow prevents grazing, Pallas’s Pikas emerge on the surface only during warm middays.

Pallas’s Pikas move openly aboveground; they often sit motionless near burrow entrances or on a stone. Home ranges are 100-720 m?*, depending on region. Winter home ranges decrease to 42-306 m®. Male Pallas’s Pikas might enlarge their home ranges during breeding season, up to 1500 m?*. Densities are 600-1800 ind/km?, maximum density can reach 3900 ind/km?, and peripheral density can be as low as 60 ind/km?®. Population numbers periodically oscillate 6-10 times. Home range boundaries are violently defended. Pallas’s Pikas are very aggressive to neighbors. Aggression includes biting or pursuit, and ritualistic behavior such as special poses. Pallas’s Pika is polygamous. Areas occupied are marked with trails and pyramids of pellets made on hillocks of earth. Pallas’s Pika has well-developed vocalization, including alarm calls and songs serving breeding and social behavior. Pallas’s Pika digs complicated burrows. Burrow has one breeding chamber, 4-12 storage chambers, and 5-42 entrances. Burrow depth is usually ¢.70 cm, and burrows cover 3-160 m*. Burrow openings leading to storage chambers are often closed with small stones. Burrows are often associated with large stones or bushes.
